In my case, wiki runs on Linux. But our mail server is Exchange on
Windows server. In such a case, how can I get MW's email functions to
work?

Jack

ofpassword change don't work.
mail() didn't work when I tested it with a small php script. Finally,
the
two steps below made my MW work :-)
--------------------------------------------
1. Got a help from
http://forums.macosxhints.com/archive/index.php/t-14639.html
[root@xxx public_html]# chmod g+s /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
[root@xxx public_html]# ls -l /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
-r-xr-sr-x 1 root smmsp 774264 May 6 2005 /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail
2. In the server, /var/spool/clientmqueue was originally owned by root.
changed owner so that sendmail can have access to
/var/spool/clientmqueue
[root@xxx public_html]# chown smmsp:smmsp /var/spool/clientmqueue/
[root@xxx public_html]# ls -al /var/spool/clientmqueue/
total 8
drwxrwx-w- 2 smmsp smmsp 4096 Aug 16 22:13 .

I appreciate you all who gave me advices and comments,

Write a quick php script to send yourself an email? If the email
arrives, mail() is working, if it doesn't, it's not.
Also try it with an account outside your company (send mail not local)
